Next step full length 4

[TRussell74]

Hello everyone. Has I just recently took next steps full length exams. On exam 4 my score dropped to 498, compared to my score of 503 on test 3. Did anyone have a similar experience? How do next steps full lengths compare to the real MCAT? I am aiming for a 505 at least.

There have been mixed reviews about whether or not the NS exams are inflated or deflated. Focus on percentage correct rather than raw score. I just bought the first 4 NS exams and I'm planning on taking the third one this weekend. How did you do for # correct/ 59? I'm aiming for 505+ on the real thing but I ideally want to be getting approx 40+/59 on the practice exams

NS exams predicted my score perfectly.

23/30/32/31. I just took test 5 and got a 504. That one was 33/39/27/39. I do not think next step is deflated because they grade on a percentile like aamc and people usually do better on the real mcat than NS FLs.

No way of knowing. Have you taken any other practice tests? How'd those go?

Was it the average of your NS scores?

Correct, it also predicted my strengths and weaknesses.
